Geocache Description:

`Welcome to a Goofy adventure. This will be a fun math adventure, so I hope you like math. Actually, all of the calculations will be done for you, so you will not need a calculator.`

`Back in 2010, I was introduced to the world of geocaching by a great friend - John. John has worked downtown for years, so early on we looked for caches in the downtown area - amongst other locations. In fact, John even had a couple hides downtown at one time. This adventure will take you on a walk around downtown Bay City (or a drive) and it will end at a geocaching place that is special to me. Also, I am hoping that maybe this cache will get John back into geocaching.`

Noteworthy information for completing this AR cache:

Bring a pen and paper to jot down coordinates.
If you use the link on the cache page to start the AR, then you would need to minimize the AR and open Google Maps or another program to enter coordinates. This will keep your place in the AR.

If you start with the Metaverse App and scan the barcode either from a printout or someone else's phone, then you can minimize the AR and open your normal caching program to enter coordinates. This will keep your place in the AR.

If you are unable to walk around a mile, it is possible to drive. This is my favorite place to go for a walk in Bay City.

On June 6, 2018 Geocaching HQ announced a new Augmented Reality (AR) geocaching experience. This is a simple Augmented Reality cache that I created. You will need to use an android/iOS phone, tablet or other compatible mobile device to experience it. This Augmented Reality experience can be played using the Metaverse app which you can find here:

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gometa.metaverse
iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/metaverse-ar-browser/id1159155137?mt=8

“This cache is part of an experiment that allows the use of Augmented Reality (AR) apps to find the cache. At the end of this experiment, Geocaching HQ will decide if this cache will be grandfathered or archived. Geocaching HQ reserves the right to archive this cache at any time if conditions change. If you have found this cache and would like to give feedback on your experience, please fill out this survey.”
